Well I decided to use some of my extra Vader parts and construct a Steampunk Vader. I have a ton of ideas in my head for this but there is one thing I can't seem to get any inspiration for. The Lightsaber, of course repaint the hilt in Bronze and Brass but what about the blade?

Here's a steampunk laser sword you can use for inspiration:http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/s...r-sabre/89694/
Now, this is a CGI model, but you could construct a real world version using the same tech as lightsaber builders use. If you want sound, there's even a Steampunk lightsaber soundfont out there!

Battery powered 30" jacobs lader stuck in a cleaned out 32" long T12 fluorescent tube, FTW. On the safer side there are those 12V car neon tubes. Google "street glow lava" and "street glow lightning" . I think they only come in 12", 15" and 20" long but two could be used end to end.
